Evelyn Judy Buehler Poet Tanka

Notes About The Poem

Hollyhock Cottage

bright blooms surround it
it has an old fashioned charm
colorful cottage
most folks stop to admire it
on their journey through the day

the road of beauty
leads where the blooms are crowding
in the still morning
blue pink red yellow and black
purple and cream-sunshine's dream

Gershon Wolf February 7, 2021 at 6:38 PM 'purple and cream -- sunshine's dream' -- Sigh! Such an inspiring, dreamy line. (btw, I think we are on the same wavelength tonight. I wrote one with almost identical theme and images). Great minds think alike, no doubt! ~ gw Evelyn Judy Buehler February 7, 2021 at 8:19 PM I do see what you mean about being on the same wavelength. It's uncanny! I'm glad you enjoyed my tanka. I loved your poem, too. :=)

Caren Krutsinger February 7, 2021 at 5:26 PM Visualizing these magnificent hollyhocks has taken me away from a disappointing Super Bowl first half. Helping my mood. Evelyn Judy Buehler February 7, 2021 at 7:59 PM I'm certainly happy to know that! Nature always makes me smile. Thank you for your appreciation.
